As designed Structured data: ProfilePage has wrong counter value

XenForo 2.2.14+ and 2.3.0 will add support for structured data ProfilePage.

The counter value for interactionStatistic :LikeAction is wrong:
It outputs the reaction reaction score the user has received for its content (posts, etc.) but it should be the number of likes for the entity itself (eg. the user profile).

Google recognizes the following interactionTypes:
https://schema.org/LikeAction: The number of likes of this entity
 
We see these as conceptually identical, and it appears that other major platforms share this view. For instance, Reddit combines post and comment karma for their like count. Unless there's specific guidance or solid evidence suggesting otherwise, we'll keep it unchanged.
